Re: The 26th Annual Jack Taylor Memorial Chess Tournament A 5 round Swiss Nov. 12-13,

A full report on this year's Jack Taylor is now available at: http://victoriachessclub.pbworks.com...nual%20Results

photos, crosstable, info on Jack Taylor, and Victoria Chess Club rating report.

The format this year was a mixed CFC and non CFC members with games between CFC members rated by the CFC and all games rated by the Victoria Chess Club. There were 20 participants, of whom 9, nearly half, were not CFC members. There is a significant market in people who want to play chess but are not particularly concerned with CFC membership.

Re: The 26th Annual Jack Taylor Memorial Chess Tournament A 5 round Swiss Nov. 12-13,

Chess legend Lynn Stringer put in an appearance in Round 2, winning a game with a strong kingside attack against Robert McFetridge of Bowser, BC.
